We played and won over Belleville. Many floats from both the grades and high school took part in the parade which was held in the afternoon. The judges found it difficult to reach a decision. The awards were presented and first place was given to the F.F.A., whose theme was We'll Grind To Victory. The Juniors placed second and the Freshmen third. After the game everyone went to the gymnasium which was at- tractively decorated in a Halloween theme. The dance opened with the presentation of the Homecoming Royal- ty and the coronation of the Queen, Lorraine Zimmerli, and King, Jerry Christensen. The Queen's crown was fashioned from yellow mums. The attendants for the King and Queen were Shirley Ruef, Jeanine Main, Jake Schlittler, and William Schrader. Arny Johnson's orchestra provided the music for the evening.
